An Exciting Case Study

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

case-week-1-bird-on-a-branch-line.jpg

Oh my poor very neglected blog? What can I say…….. but I return after my month long break with very exciting news….I have been buzzing with excitement since I received an email from Iwona Palamountain a few weeks ago telling me about a new and exited challenge blog site she was starting then asked me to be part of it…. Who? ME…. I jumped at the chance…. still a little in shock!

dtbadge-gif.gif

What is this new challenge all about? It is called CASE Study! Each month we have a new super talented {Stamping celebrity} muse, each Thursday we have a new creation to take inspiration from to create a card. You can take any element or detail you like, use the colour combo or even the layout with your own personal style…. WHAT a GREAT and FUN challenge? Go to the CASE Study site also check out the muse card for this week along with the amazing cards from the other design team members.

This is my CASE of Makiko Jones our First Muse/ August Muse, I love Makiko’s style it has lots of layers and still “clean”…..you know I LOVE that. Makiko’s card inspired me to use Sage with a strong dark tone and I took a little inspiration from her layout but made it my own a little…..I also loved how Makiko lightly shaded the background of the main image so I have used glossy cardstock and good old baby wipe “swipe” technique over my oval.

a-rose-is-a-rose-rich-plum-line.jpg

Friday is HERE….YAY! and it is a long weekend which is lovely I just hope it warms up a little here is Sydney because I am freezing. I have big plans to stamp this weekend and I am looking forward to Saturday, I have a team training event to attend and I am doing a bow presentation for the group…. wish me luck :) As you know Friday is also Inkspiration challenge time and this week is a sketch which is SO good. I suggest making time to play along this week.

makeeshasketch027-1.jpg

I just love this colour combo, when I first started I was really struggling with the flower placement, the image in my “head” was not happening on the card front {don’t you hate that} by in the end it came together and I am really happy with it.

Inkspirations Challenge 26

Friday, June 4th, 2010

wild-to-celebrate-line.jpg

Finally Friday is here, I know I say it often but what a week! I am happy the weekend is here however my weekend is filled with lots of work but I still plan to catch up with some of my favourite people and have a little fun. I have been feeling a little uncreative lately as I am sure you can tell, I am happy to report I feel like my mojo is back! Last weekend I did my last classes in a scrapbook store, which was sad because I have been working in scrapbook stores for years teaching classes all over Sydney but I have stopped doing it so I can focus on my current career direction, having said that there will also be some changes here coming to my blog and with my Stampin’ Up! business soon. I hope to post a little more now I don’t have classes to design for stores.

Anyway I know you are here not to hear all about me or my week but to see a little eye candy and what I did for this weeks Inkspiration challenge. Keesh gave the DT a colour challenge this week….here are the colours:

makeeshacolourchallenge26-1.jpg

Here is my card for this week, I am so happy with this card and just think it is super cute. I don’t think I can part with this one and normally I don’t talk myself up {well I don’t think I normally do anyway} but I am feeling pretty clever for coming up with this one :) The Real Red DSP I have used is retired it was from a 2007 Simply Scrappin kit, I hand most of my scrap DSP to my 4 year old niece Bailey so I had to borrow it from her stash….

wild-to-celebrate-front.jpg

Loving the inside too….

wild-to-celebrate-inside.jpg

If your wondering how I made the banner… well I used these stamps from Party Hearty, the row of party hats which I used upside down and punched the “celebrate” out with a small Circle Punch. I love Party Hearty and it is my most used birthday set.

A blushing swap

Saturday, May 22nd, 2010

blushing-swap-line.jpg

Convention is here and I am SO excited, I thought I would share my card with you I have made as my Convention swap. I made 40 of these little babies and I never want to cut another butterfly out again {lol}…. I started making my swaps over a month ago and just did little parts when I had time so it did not seem like such a big job, that also means I have had glitter all through my house that whole time. At first I did not like my swaps but now I really like them, I am a massive fan of Blush Blossom with Close to Cocoa so I had to give this combo a give for the last time at a Convention as they retire soon.

blushing-swap-front.jpg

Inside, I did not do this on all my swaps but this one is for someone very special.

All Materials are from Stampin’ Up! and I will update the details once I get home.

Please leave me a little comment love, I so love hearing from your guys :)
